Deferring Vs Re-Applying? (1 Viewer)

[imthunder]

Hey all!

I am thinking of taking a year off to work next year before going to uni in finance but I was wondering what the point of deferring is if I can just re-apply next year? Re-applying sounds especially good for me as my UAI will go up (I do the IB)
Thanks Heaps.

why will your uai go up?

i think its best to defer (if thats what you want), so you've got a guaranteed place...remember if you reapply the uai might go up next year and it might be harder for you to get in.

If you defer, you have a guaranteed place in the course you were offered. However, the next year you can apply to other courses as well. So there's no disadvantage in deferring the course you are offered.
